Good write-up in the Small Arms Defense Journal concerning the Army's continuing on-again/off-again search for a new rifle and possibly a new caliber: http://sadefensejournal.com/wp/?p=2148 Jeffrey

Hi guys, Little bit of story behind this one, so bear with me. A co-worker of mine was friends with an individual who recently passed away, and was sharing a few stories about his deceased friend with us. In addition to serving in Vietnam, his friend also helped in 1981 to bust a group of...

Hi all, I've been trolling the internet for a couple of days looking for info, but I'm not coming up with much. Is there any manufacturer currently producing a Winchester 1886 model rifle in 45-90? Is any manufacturer producing any similar lever guns in 45-90? My boss is looking for one and...

To begin, I've never owned any Enfield rifles before. I recently picked one up after trolling the wonderful intertubes for as much info as I could find about the rifles. But upon receipt and inspection of the gun, I'm left with a question that no one on the internet (that I could find, anyway)...

A thousand pardons if I've posted this in the wrong place... I've recently picked up a AK-74 on which I had hoped to mount a EKP-8-02 Kobra collimator sight. For some years I've seen Doug Ford's http://tantal.kalashnikov.guns.ru/bst.html listed as an excellent source. However, following the...

I've been seeing these rifles for sale on several websites over the last few months, but had never seen pictures or video of them in actual use (although obviously the Hungarians use them). But I did find this pic on the USMC website: The marines are helping to train the Afghan National...

I know this sort of despicable crime can happen seemingly anywhere nowadays, but it seems horribly fitting that this occurred in Daly-Land: From Fox News: Girl, 9, Found Stabbed to Death in Chicago Alley Tuesday, July 15, 2008 CHICAGO — A 9-year-old girl was found stabbed to...

I've had an MAK90 for many moons, and some time back gave her a makeover with a new KVAR stock set and the necessary Tapco trigger parts for compliance. I'd love to put a slant break on her, but being an MAK90 the threads on the barrel were machined off. I'm guessing that welding is about the...

Every couple of weeks my favorite other website, Slashdot.com, posts a different poll on a topic related to current events. This past week that poll concerned the D.C. Vs. Heller case. It looks like so: Of the D.C. v. Heller decision, I think it's a: 1. Good (or even Great) decision...

New member, longtime lurker, great to be here, etc. So I just picked up a Romanian PSL, and it's just what i expected in a Kalashnikov-type rifle: crude, rude, and delightfully beastly. But as I shouldered the thing for the first time I realized that Romanians must be considerably smaller...
